the nuns in sinsinawa are famous for their bread, rolls and fruitcake. cinnamon roll is my favorite.

the bakery is in the sinsinawa mound, a complex located in southwest rural wisconsin amid lush woodlands, orchards, vineyards and fields. it is the motherhouse of Dominican sisters, a religious congregation dedicated to preaching and teaching the gospel here and abroad. they also offer retreats, reflections and programs for spiritual enrichment.

hubby and i joined our friends for a holy mass with the sisters, lunch at the mound picnic grounds then made a side trip to nearby galena, a popular midwest destination.

. naku pareho tayo. 🙂 there are about 108 nuns living in the complex 85% are retired. the younger ones are all over the world preaching and teaching. it’s a vibrant community. thanks for the visit Arlene 🙂
